Instructions

Take a microwave bowl, add the ricotta cheese, sugar, milk powder n butter n stir them continously until the cheese gets well mixed, this may looks as creamy paste..keep the microwave in high temperature for 5 minutes n cook this milk mixture, they may doubled their volume, stir them once, keep again in high temperature for 20 minutes n cook again..keep an eye while doing this, u may see the milk mixture might have turned slightly brownish colour at the edges..now transfer to a flat dish r plate, sprinkle the almond n pistachios pieces on the top as u desire..keep aside n let them cool..once they r cooled cut them any shape as u wish..can store them for  2 day in room temperature..

    Hi Priya, I tried this recipe yesterday and unfortunately my kalakand burnt. I had only cooked it for a total of 15 minutes and it got burned. What did i do wrong? the recipe said to cook for 5 minutes then mix then cook for 20. I cooked for 5 then for another 10 minutes. i took it out of microwave and it was brown. It still taste pretty good. but its just not burfi anymore, its more like halwa (really hard halwa). But i really want to try this again.. can you please advise on what i should do? Thank you so much in advance!

        Priya,

        I want to try this and thanks for a lovely recipe. Can u specify the alternatives for cheese/paneer and milk powder along with its measurements?  

        BTW, in the above line u mentioned paneer as alternative for cheese and condensed milk for milk powder right? condensed milk here means unsweetened version right?

        Regards,

        Ramya
